Experiment to show the rate of photosynthesis with different light intensities Aim: My aim is to find out the different rates of photosynthesis with different light intensities. Prediction: Number Of Bubbles Distance From Plant As shown in the graph I think as the distance from the plant increases the number of bubbles will decrease. This is due to the light intensity increasing, as it gets closer. Method: Take the following apparatus: Measuring Cylinder, Glass Beaker, Funnel, Lamp, Canadian Pondweed (Elodea), Metre stick.
